Smart Bitches, Trashy Books

!!!!!!!!!!

I would love to start the new semester off right with a Smart Bitches ARC! My bosom is heaving already from the excitement. Come on, luck be a lady tonight!

Hey, how about awarding them to the first 10 responders?  grin

I’d love to educate myself about heaving bosoms (and why is that not spelled as it is pronounced?)

Count me in! I’m the best review writer this side of the Atlantic (and Pacific).

ARC me, baby.  ARC me good.

(spamfilter: came26.  As in, 26 times?  Bury-me-in-a-Y-shaped-coffin?  Yikes)

I have all my fingers and toes crossed and would happily review it on my own blog. Promise :)

I will give it all the squeeeeeee it deserves!!

Arc me too!!

ARC me any time, any place, any how!

I’ve always had a hankering to be a kind of copy editor…though I was always afraid that they’d give me a genre that I hate. I’d love to give this a go - to quote John Cleese as the Pope speaking to Eric Idle as Michaelangelo, “I may not know art, but I know what I like!”

I’d love to give it a review. :) And I will be honest!

heaving bosoms (and why is that not spelled as it is pronounced?)

Huh. How do you pronounce bosom? I’m Australian and say it how it’s spelled. Bo like the first part of bog, Som like the sound of song but with more of an m…

I would love to be a reviewer!  This book looks like so much fun :)

Congratulations!

You had me at the cover.  But seriously, her shoulder is looking a little dislocated.

ARC would be the coolest!

Don’t listen to GrowlyCub—send one to the first 14 responders.

Count me in please, I’d love to read this and right now april seems so far away.

Fingers crossed and knotted!

It would be so cool to check out your awesomeness before it is released in stores!

Count me in! I’d love to be one of the cool kids who gets a copy.

A copy would be loverlee. I am so excited at the thought I am coming out of lurkdom to comment for the first time evar.

Oooo, pick me, pick me!

That you’re willing to ship internationally makes me adore you all the more. Thanks for everything, and have a lovely day! :-)

I’ve already got one!  Heeheheheheheheheeee!!!!!!!!!!

I wantz it, precious. (Sorry, was recently re-watching LOTR over Christmas.)

I would love to have an ARC!

Wow, I always pick the best times to get my nose out of my study books and come up for air!

Congratulations on the books, by the way.

What is on my mind today?

Ronald Regan: Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.

Voltaire : I do not agree with what you have to say, but I’ll defend to the death your right to say it.

Baruch Spinoza: Peace is not an absence of war, it is a virtue, a state of mind, a disposition for benevolence, confidence, justice.

I’m in.

I would love an ARC of the book! I’m hoping I’ll get picked!

Please, send me an ARC!

Why does the guy on the cover look like Adrian Pasdar? Not that I’m complaining.

And in an attempt to get some converstation going, why do Iranians get no love in sheikh romances? I’m no expert but the options for place of origin seem to be either a) Egypt/Maghreb, b) Peninsula, or c) Agrabah, by which I mean FakeArabistan, not specifically Faux Iraq, which I think Agrabah is meant to be.

Anyway: why no love for the Iranian stereotypes?

Ooh! Me me me me me meee!

Oooh, me please!  *attempts to exert will upon random number generator…*

Sign me up, count me in, I’ll boogey down because that’s awesome!

Please, Ma’am(‘s) may I have an ARC?  I promise I’d review the heck out of it!

I cannot wait to read this book!  I’ve been enjoying the SB site for about six months now and one of my New Year’s Resolutions is to stop being a lurker - what better way to start than to beg for an ARC?

I’d love an ARC of the book!

Yes Please!!

Yessss!!!!!!
Just a few hours ago I was complaining about how I’ll never survive until the actual release…
I WANT it, I NEED it, and other such sentiments.
Yay!

woo!  Count me in!

I love to break the tedium of my master’s thesis by reading trashy books.  This would be even better!  I would greatly appreciate an ARC!  :)

Count me in!  I’d love to read some bitchin’ goodness!

Make my new year- let me win this! Looks like a super book- will buy in april no matter what.

I’d love to read it, count me in.

I can’t resist throwing my hat in the ring for this one.

into76 into what?

I would love to win one. Heck, I’d even post a LibraryThing review.

Me, ME, Pick me!!!!  I’m already half in lurrrrrrve with the SB book.  Who wouldn’t be with that awesome cover??  The manliest of men with a scantily-clad hottie within his grasp, swooning from his hetero heat.  I’ve gots to have it!  Pleaasssseee!!!

If you are brave enough to let me read it. *insert evil laugh*

Love to exercise my reviewing muscles! Count me in.

Please add me to your list of Raiders of the New ARCS!

Comment! Also, am I the only one who thinks the gentleman on the cover looks a bit like Adrian Pasdar? Or, more accurately, Nathan Petrelli? Just me? Cool.

Yeah, yeah, I’ll buy many copies, but dammit, I want one NOW.

*ahem*

This is my third attempt at posting a comment here… hope this works.

Hope you SBs are having a great new year.

And how terrible is it that when I read the word “heaving”, I usually think of um.. retching?

Oh yeah, sign me up!

Since international shipping is in the books, count me in!

Here’s to playing the ARC lottery!

Hey there!

I would just love to read and review your book before it hits the shelves!!  Pick me, because not only will I read the free copy and write you a fair and honest reaction to it, but I will also make sure to buy copies for all of my friends.

I’d love to check out a copy!

I’d love BHB, even if writing a review smacks of homework. And since my ver word is study41, I feel winning is fated…unless I’m meant to learn more about George HW Bush, in which case, shoot me now.

The false copy I made for the videomo has been taunting me, so I would definitely be jazzed to have a real one.

I’d love to give it a read & review, especially as I’m relatively new to the genre.  There’s no one I trust more than you guys to point me in the right direction!

Coming out of the woodwork…

Squee!

Um, I mean, uh, receviing an ARC would be most intellectually gratifying.

SQUEE!!! (A high pitched girlish noise). Every other week I check my pre-orders at Amazon.com and there you are, not available until APRIL. I keep checking the date thinking it will change.  So… the thought that there are actual copies available for perusal is KRAZY.

I exist among a group of non-believers who think I am squandering precious brain cells, please let me be one who can assist in the support of a most beloved genre.

Ooh, this is fun.  I hope I get picked!

Should I win, I’d happily slide this to the top of the to-be-read list in order to send back an opinion.  :)

I would love a chance to get an ARC of this, and gladly will give you honest feedback on it.

The tingle started as the postman approached the door.  She peeped shyly through the lace curtains, her heart pounding.  Was this it? Was the ARC going to show its face?  Could they finally sit down and exchange all that pent-up lust and misunderstanding that had been building up pressure these past months?  Her mouth quivered, and she caught her breath in a desperate gasp as the postman slid, with smooth precision, his package into her box.

I want one too.  Please.

Sam

Nothing pithy to say, I’d just enjoy an ARC.

Eek, I want to win a copy!

I had no idea you guys were writing a book. I’d love to read it!!

Me want ARC.

I can’t wait to get my hands on this bok, you gals are so awesome :)

Awesome! I’d love to be entered, too. :) Thanks!

*cough*  I meant “book”.  Something about typing with a 6 month old on your lap…it leads to many typos.

Would love an ARC to give an opinion. My hubby says I’m a pro at throwing in my thoughts!

I’d love to get my hands on a copy! (And would definitely give a review ... though sometimes the squees cannot be helped.)

Wow!  I want me some Heaving Bosums—in a platonic way, of course.  I bet it feels great to actually hold a copy in your hands after all the hard work it must have taken.  LUV me some ARC.

Oh please do include me in the ARC draw, thank you!

Count me in! Even better, I can give you the added perspective of a librarian who specializes in reader’s advisory ;)

ME!  me me me!  pick me!

You bitches are so generous!  Please add me to the “Me Wantz” list.

YES YES YES!  I would bear Smart Bitch babies for the chance to get my paws on one of your ARCs!

I could totally use a guide to romance novels! :D esp. from you Smart Bitches—has to be good!

I can has ARC?

MEEEEEEEEEEE! Oh. I mean SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

I still have it on preorder and will keep that because how cool to have before and after?!?

YES PLEASE

I can’t wait to read this book!  So many plots to snark, so little time…

Wheeeeeeeee! I can’t wait to get this book.

I’m not sure I can match the awesomeness of an SB review, but I’ll give it my best shot.  Put me into the pot, please!

Me! Me! I want to win one!

Oh, pick me! Pick me!

This looks awesome! Please put my name in the draw.

Oooooh!!!! I’d love one! And I’d totally quote you in my PhD thesis, too! :-)

Oooh, me, too! Me, too! *waves frantically*

Congratulations, bitches! You are now published!

sign me up! I’ll totally take a chance to review the book early!

I’ve ordered a copy from Amazon but I’d lurv an ARC!!!

Want want want want in a bad way.

How’s that for pleading?

I would love to get my hands on an arc.

Hi.
I think I can be honest and do a review if I win. So pretty please enter me to win. I’ll squee loudly if I do.

Ohh! Pick me! Pick me!!! I’d *love* to give a fresh Canadian perspective!! ;p

— Bonz

I want it! But I’ll have to buy a copy even if I win, because of all the changes you said you guys made. That was sneaky and smart.

Do me, Bitches.

Surely being #101 would bring me an ARC!

my word:  poor99

Wow, so true!

Sign me up!  Would love to have a copy!

Pick me!  Pick me!  Pick me!!!  I’d love to read it!! :)

I want, I want, I want. It’s all about me, right?

I’d love a copy! Count me in!

I sooo want to read this book, like right now!

Oooh! Oooooh! Me!

Have to enter…

Oh, oh pick me.  I promise that I’ll read & review it before I allow the grad school monster to suck me back into the world of no reading for fun.

I would love to give it a whirl.

little19 I hope not.

Ooh!  What a way to start of 2009 - with some Smart Bitchy action!  Totally hot!  I would be honored to read and review your new book.  Cheers!

I’m drooling heavily in anticipation….gimme…please?

Oh ... so exciting.  Everyone I know will be getting this *next* Christmas. :)

Well, the first day back after vacation started off with consoling my mom 4,000 miles away over her dog getting hit by a car and dying in front of her.  It was then topped off by having to go to immigration and having a potential of being deported, but no one can give me a definitive answer.  It included being questioned in a room with bars on the windows, the overhead lights turned off, and a “translator” guy who’s English rivals the two years of Japanese I took 11 years ago.

But you know what?  If I had had a SB book to distract me at any part of the day, it all would have been good.  And hey, if I do get deported, this would be great for the 12 hour plane ride!  :)

ARC me, baby.

(not the other92)

Ooh, enter me!

Definitely add me to the list!!

Wow! I registered for the RT Conference and wanted to check out your blog since I want to attend your workshop. I’m very impressed and would love to read your book before hearing you in April!

Excitedly waving hand—pick me, pick me!  :-)

Oh, I want one!  :-)

My kids have been Shrekking it again so I’ve got Donkey stuck in my head shouting “Pick me, Pick me,  oohh, oohh pick me!

Ooh! I’d love to win this and I would eagerly review it.

if you don’t mind shipping to ireland, count me in!

I’d love to see a copy, I’m getting ready to teach REaders’ Advisory and Popular Literature to library school students again this summer and I’m always looking to get them some new readings, especially on genres like romance, which most don’t seem to understand.

It’s damn cold today up here in the Great White North and I could use some Smart Bitch Lurrrrve (TM) to warm me up.

OMG, want, want!

Oooooooh- pick me! Um, please?

Happy new year gals! I’m looking forward to the new book, fantastic cover!

Pick me, pick me, pick me!

How cool would it be to have an ARC of Beyond Heaving Bosoms? Just the coolest thing ever. Fingers crossed.

Indeed, I will purchase it when it arrives in stores, but my new year’s resolution is to give in to instant gratification. Help a bitch out.

(Though it’s not looking good that my word is never88. Le sigh…)

I would love one!  It would give me something practical to do with my English degree besides the thousand papers in store next semester.

...of course, I’d have to buy The Book anyway because of all the additions.  But still!

I’m in!!  As long as I can post a review at my site, too.

Read, baby, read!

Gimme!!!!  Pretty please…???

Me! Me! In the wors of my toddler, pweeeeeezzzz!!!!

Yes.  Please.  Thank you.

Of course I would love to win an ARC, pre-changes and all!

(Spamblocker: opened69. I KNOW.)

Oh man, count me in!

Squee!  I want this book.  Please.

here’s hoping I git lucky in 2009…

yes, yes and yes…that may be one yes to many. Would love one!

Me, me!  I wanna read it!  :)

I want one!

I just realized last night I have one more week off. But… Pick me anyway. I am not only a highly qualified cocksucker I have been known to kiss ass.

I’ve already pre-ordered a copy…but I still would love to get my hands on an ARC!

Security word:  been29.  Yup, I’ve been 29, and it wasn’t the happiest year of my life.  30 was better, and 35 isn’t starting so badly either.

Here’s a preemptive *SQUEEEEE*!!!!

(If it helps any, one year I did book reviews for Elle magazine—you know how they have a section of “reader reviews” and have a whole “best of the year” thing.  It was actually pretty cool, and I read a couple of good books. May try to get on the panel again sometime.)

Must have must have must have. Don’t care if it’s an ARC. Quality will out.

I would love a copy!

Please!

Oh how me wants for my vacation.

Me me me!  If I get one I promise to filk a song about it!  (Burma Sauce and white hoo-hoos optional.)

I would love to have an ARC of Heaving Bosoms to review and promote on my blog. I’m planning to promote the book,regardless,but
giving it an early review would be great:)

This was going to be a bad start to a bad week- the first week of classes, but now all can be happy because I have something to rejoice in.

Sure, I’d love an excuse to do more reading!

Please? Please!!

OOOoooOoooOoO
Can I has heaving Bosom? Pls.. before I got off into that scary territory known as law school.

*frantically waving both hands*

pick me!  pick me!

do hereby solemnly swear that, if chose, I will put aside any and all other reading to focus solely on your ARC—comments and squeeing to follow via return email!

hmmmm, verification is study92—obviously, I’m meant to study your book!

spamword: movement98

Ooh, pick me!  Pick me! :-)  Cool cover & congratulations!

Wants.  Precious.

Why, I would love to win an arc for review and thanks for asking, you smart bitches, you.  LOL

Deidre

That would make my day! It looks amazing!

Ooh ooh ooh, pick me! Pick me! I will totally be good and squee and say wonderful things about smart bitches!

I’m late to the party! Spend last night LMAO at Videomos. No better finish than an ARC of the subject material.

hmm, second82, I guess I am.

Nothing cool and/or scintillating to say here. I just want a copy. ;)

looks like a fun read!

Count me in.

Hey, cool! I always send your cover-snark entries to my mother, to cheer her up. I know we’d both enjoy this book, and I plan on buying a copy when it comes out. But to get it for free would be sweet-times-ten!

Ooh, totally. I’ve always wished to review something! *pleading eyes*

Congratulations on the book! I can’t wait to read it!

oooh! me, please!

Ooooo! Me wants!

I want!  If it’s anything like SBTB, I imagine it will be a riot… pick meeeee!

Huh. How do you pronounce bosom? I’m Australian and say it how it’s spelled.

In the UK we say the ‘bo’ with a U sound, to rhyme with ‘to’, and the ‘som’ as ‘sum’ (ie when you total up numbers).

As for why it’s spelled one way and said another, that’s just English for you.  Formed as one written language from many, many different spoken dialects.  Added to which, pronunciations have changed over time: witness some of Shakespeare’s rhymes.  When he wrote them, the words sounded the same, but now one or both words are said differently.

I’m a Smart Bitch, so I need this ARC! (By the way, congrats on getting it published!) Love the cover!

Not only would I read it and post a review, but the review would also go up on my blog, Deep Thoughts, which I turned into a book review blog last year. 510+ reviews and counting…

I’d love a copy!

Pleasepleaseplease! :)

Oh, man! An ARC would be fabulous! And it’s my birthday!  That would be the best birthday present of all!

I would love to add this to my libraries collection!

*perks up with interest*
Chance at getting something that I want anyway for *free?*

OVER ONE HUNDRED AND EIGHTY COMMENTS IN LESS THAN TWELVE HOURS??????  ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME????????? sorry. i’ll stop shouting now. BUT I REALLY REALLY WANT ONE OF THOSE BOOKS! EVEN WITH ERRORS THAT NEED TO BE SPANKED! no, really. i’ll stop shouting.  maybe a little squee.

squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Count me in! I’d love to read it, review it, and squee about it. :)

I’d love to read your ARC and give feedback on it. Pick me. Pick me!

Ooh, fun! I promise to read it and send reactions! There might even be a play by play involved! Can you imagine?

With trembling fingers, I tore open the package, hoping beyond hope. My fierce bosoms heaved as I saw what I had long awaited…

Ooh, I waaant.  I do review ARCs!  I have a LibraryThing account (Cynara) with seven ARCs reviewed.

Of course I"d love a copy….

Cross my heart and hope to throb, heave, sigh, shudder, or whatever the descriptive word of the day might be—if I get an ARC, I will read and review!

Thanks in advance if I’m picked! :D

Please send this former English major/ Creative Writing minor an ARC.

Ha!  Now you know that you’ll have well-written review!

WANT!!!!!!!

Many congrats!!

Winning an ARC would be a great way to start off the new year.

I’d love to read it !!!
Count me in !

I’m so excited, I’m coming out from the shadows of lurkdom.
I think my high-pitched squees have lured all the neighborhood dogs to the door.

I would lurrrrrve to review your book (can I use that word since it’s trademarked?).

Snowed in…Need more books….especially of the lusty variety.
